The most under attack is the creation mentioned in the Book of Genesis Chapter 1. Mostly people (even some Christians) believe in evolution. Some went on saying that day or "Youm" mentioned in the Bible means a period. Let us examine how unscientific this creation is.

The order of creation according to the Book of GenesisOrder of creationDay 1: Sky, Earth, lightDay 2: Water, both in ocean basins and above the sky(!)Day 3: PlantsDay 4: Sun, Moon, stars (as calendrical and navigational aids)Day 5: Sea monsters (whales), fish, birds, land animals, creepy-crawlies (reptiles, insects, etc.)Day 6: Humans (apparently both sexes at the same time)Day 7: God rested.

Day 1: Creation of Sky, Earth and Light

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth...(Genesis 1:1-2)

The universe was filled homogeneously and isotropically with an incredibly high energy density, huge temperatures and pressures, and was very rapidly expanding and cooling. Approximately 10−35 seconds into the expansion, a phase transition caused a cosmic inflation, during which the universe grew exponentially.

This theory, in which all the atheists, scientists and other people believe says, that the universe had mass, sky and light, and so does the Bible says, that the universe had sky, earth and light on the first day of creation.

Day 2: Water, both in ocean basins and above the skyA few minutes into the expansion, when the temperature was about a billion (one thousand million; 109; SI prefix giga) Kelvin and the density was about that of air, neutrons combined with protons to form the universe's deuterium and helium nuclei in a process called Big Bang necleosynthesis. Most protons remained uncombined as hydrogen nuclei. As the universe cooled, the rest mass energy density of matter came to gravitationally dominate that of the photon radiation. After about 380,000 years the electrons and nuclei combined into atoms (mostly hydrogen); hence the radiation decoupled from matter and continued through spacelargely unimpeded. This relic radiation is known as the cosmic microwave background radiation.

It says that the universe now has water because now there is hydrogen and if you ask primary school student, that students would also tell you that it is simple science that hydrogen and oxygen makes water.[/blue]

Day 3 & 4: PlantsOver a long period of time, the slightly denser regions of the nearly uniformly distributed matter gravitationally attracted nearby matter and thus grew even denser, forming gas clouds, stars, galaxies, and the other astronomical structures observable today. The details of this process depend on the amount and type of matter in the universe. The three possible types of matter are known as cold dark matter, hot dark matter and baryonice matter. The best measurements available (from WMAP) show that the dominant form of matter in the universe is cold dark matter. The other two types of matter make up less than 20% of the matter in the universe.

The big bang theory says that stars, sun, moon etc came into existence after quite a while. So strange, now you should believe in Bible as it says same.

Light source before the creation of sun?This part of creation is made fun of and has been under attack for a long time. In Genesis 1:14 we read that on the day 4 the sun, moon and stars were created. Now let us see how unscientific this creation is: Science says that universe came in to existence around 15 billion years ago and sun came in to existence around 4.5 billion years ago. Bible also says the same in Genesis 1:14.

I strongly believe that the creation recorded in the Book of Genesis is not unscientific. Rather Big Bang theory totally supports the record of creation.

Jeanne Guyon (1648-1717) wrote powerfully about the need for an intimate relationship with Almighty God, including this: “He who has a pure heart will never cease to pray; and he who will be constant in prayer, shall know what it is to have a pure heart.”
